    February 2015 Competitions

    February 2015 starts with a problem, challenge-wise: there's three challenges to choose from, and all of them CPU projects...
    Extremely poor planning from our Russian and Polish friends, who issued their challenges weeks after the Anguillian Pirates had issued theirs.
    But do as you like and crunch what project you have the hots for!
    It the total number of challenges remains as low as this I might be able to place logos with them in an update.


    February 01 to February 08 - Black Barts Pesky Pirates POGS Party
    The Anguillan pirates provide loot for us all: POGS has the most trophies/badges of all BOINC projects.
    You practically get a trophy for every breath you take/fart you make while crunching, I've already got 113 of them, stinking or not.

    February 01 to February 08 - Bivium must collapse
    Russia Team seems to want us to try to break the server while crunching SAT@Home. To make this more challenging they've recently increased the credit.

    It's actually 1 Phenom II X6 1100T running all 6 cores, 1 Opteron 2360SE running 6 of 8 cores, and 1 FX-8370 running 4 of 8 cores.

    That's pretty much all I've got. I tried pitting them all together at this and even running a batch of workunits ahead of time to dump as soon as it started but even all that is nowhere near where the other guys are. I'm not even on the to 10 anymore. Oh well..
